NHTSA Complaint #10307696 — 2008 LEXUS GS 350

MY 2008 LEXUS GS350 IS ONE OF, APPARENTLY, MANY LEXUS MODELS THAT HAVE NO CAMBER ADJUSTMENT CAPABILITY FRONT OR REAR RENDERING WHEELS TO PROGRESS TO THE POINT OF MISALIGNMENT THAT EXCESSIVE INSIDE TIRE WEAR OCCURS AND CANNOT BE CORRECTED. THIS TIRE WEAR LEFT UNNOTICED, DUE TO ITS CONCEALMENT FROM VIEW ON THE INSIDE PORTION OF THE TIRE, IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE TIRES CAN WEAR UNNOTICED TO THE POINT OF FAILURE CAUSING INJURY OR DEATH. MY GS350, THAT I BOUGHT NEW, 1/25/08, HAS BOTH RIGHTSIDE WHEELS OUT OF ALIGNMENT WITH NO WAY TO ACHIEVE PROPER ALIGNMENT. INSIDE TIRE WEAR IS ALREADY APPARENT. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 14,000 MILES ON IT AND WITH TRUNK AND BACKSEAT EMPTY OF ANY ADDED WEIGHT OF CARGO OR PASSENGERS (WHICH WOULD ONLY EXACERBATE THE PROBLEM). EVEN IF EMPTY, NORMAL VEHICLE AGING EXACERBATES THE PROBLEM. INABILITY TO PROPERLY ALIGN WHEELS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE! *TR
